Exploring the Options and a Heartfelt Entreaty

Boxes of Vegan Lunch Box have been whisking their way around the country (and the globe!) There are now more and more locations to pick up your very own copy:

If you would like to pick up a copy of my book and give to an animal-friendly charity at the same time, check out the latest newsletter from Vegan Outreach. While supplies last, you can receive a free copy of VLB with your donation.

Speaking of animal-friendly charities, you can also buy a copy through the PETA Catalog and have part of your money benefit People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Finally, if none of those small, wonderful, independent resellers appeal, VLB is now available through that behemoth of ecommerce, Amazon.com. We listed it ourselves earlier this morning, in order to make all you Amazon Lovers happy (I, myself, admit to a bit of an amazon addiction; the "one click" button, she is dangerous).

And so here comes my Heartfelt Entreaty: please, please take a moment if you can to go to Amazon and say something nice about my book. Ratings and reviews on Amazon can make a huge difference, so I'm hoping some of you might take a moment to put in a friendly word. (Update: Amazon's search engine is working now. Thank you all so much for your kind words and wonderful reviews!!)

WOOT JENNIFER! I was sooo excited to see your interview in the latest Laptop Lunch newsletter and wow wow wow! I just did my review at Amazon! I'm extremely excited at all the success you seem to be getting for your book! I hope you continue to get much more success! You deserve it!

jenniferi love you and i love your blog!i haven't ordered your book yet cuz i am broke but soon soon soon. i just wanted to let you know that i went to amazon.com and typed in the name of your book and it doesn't come up. when i follow your link i get to the book and 5 reviews but when i type in "vegan lunch box" in the books section (and just in amazon in general) i get other listings (vegan cupcakes, etc. and even a suggestion to type in your name) but i don't actually ever come across your book ??? maybe this is just a glitch as its recently listed but i thought i'd let you know in case you should contact amazon. you obviously had no trouble finding the listing but others might as i did......weird...just thought i'd let you know fyi..... PS thanks for being THE BOMB and helping me feed my fiance's lunch box and undoubtedly feeding our future children as well :)

A UK fan here: I can't find the book on the amazon.co.uk site. Is it only available on amazon.com? I can assure you that you've got plenty of fans in the UK, a lot of them (like me!) wanting to add your book to their wishlist for Christmas!
